[Manfred the Wonder Dawg]

“The Great Commission (in both Matthew’s and Mark’s accounts) was given to the eleven apostles only.”

So that means NOBODY today has any responsibility to proclaim the Gospel? You don’t say that the Great Commission was given to the 11 apostles and their successors. I guess the pope is an interloper.
